Conservatives Accuse New Docuseries About 'Queer' Animals Of Pushing 'Satanic Gay Agenda'

The upcoming Peacock docuseries 'Queer Planet,' which highlights sexuality and gender in the animal kingdom, has conservatives losing their minds.

Conservatives are having another meltdown over LGBTQ+ individuals and the basic facts of science, except this time it's not queer people they're furious about, but queer animals.

Yes, the people who would have you believe they're saving the world from the incalculable evil of liberalism would also have you believe that gay animals—the very gay animals that have existed for as long as the Earth has—are a threat.


Peacock has had the audacity to explore sexuality in the animal kingdom in a documentary called Queer Planet, and right-wingers are acting like it's the end of the world.

Queer Planet arrives just in time for Pride Month, and explores things like gay penguins, bisexual lions and clownfish who change their sex as they see fit.

As Peacock said of the show:

"This documentary looks at extraordinary creatures, witnesses amazing behaviors, and introduces the scientists who are questioning the traditional concept of what’s natural when it comes to sex and gender."

Despite the documentary focusing on scientific facts, the usual far-right suspects have been crowing about it being "Satanic" and "sick," and holding the documentary up as the latest evidence that LGBTQ+ and liberals are "coming for your kids," in the words of one YouTube commenter.

And then there's geniuses like bankrupt far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who tweeted that "'Queer Planet' equals a dead planet," because apparently merely acknowledging the existence of gay animals now means every animal on Earth will never again reproduce.

Naturally, those who aren't slavering morons found the conservative Queer Planet uproar ridiculous and even hilarious.






Queer Planet premieres June 6.

Canadian Comedy Show Epically Skewers Trump With Hilarious 'Quiet, Piggy!' Storytime Sketch

For those lucky enough to live in Canada or along the United States border with Canada, This Hour Has 22 Minutes—shortened to just 22 Minutes since 2009—has been a bright spot in a sometimes bleak political landscape.

The show's format is a mock news program. Launched in 1993 during Canada's 35th general election, 22 Minutes was The Daily Show three years before there was one. 22 Minutes focuses primarily on Canadian politics with a combination of news parody, sketch comedy, and satirical editorials, but sometimes delves into international affairs.
